Michael K Williams as Julius Caesar for the Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey.

For various reasons, I’m relieved to see black guys getting Shakespearean roles that are not Othello.  

Fun fact: in ancient Rome, grabbing your nuts meant “I am telling the absolute truth” (“testimony” and “testicles” are from the same root; I wonder if “mony” in this compound is the same as in “alimony,” it’d make the whole word “I bet my balls this is true”).  I am not sure what an extended middle finger and the derpface meant, though.
